Yawn.

The early pregnancy exhaustion definitely kicked in today. I've been tired for days, but this was the first day that I was struggling to make it through work. I heart feeling symptoms. I still press on my bbs all day long (when no one is looking of course) to make sure they are still hurting. I really hope that morning sickness starts to happen soon because that will make me feel so much better. My nurse did call me with my 3rd hcg draw yesterday, and it was 1,111! Our first ultrasound is scheduled for next Wednesday morning so just one more week until we get to see our baby! I'm still in absolute shock and amazement at what God has done for us.

Enjoy your symptoms. I still haven't gotten over the exhaustion. Would you want to put a ticker on your blog so we can follow how far along you are?

And congrats on the third great beta number!

Don't stress yourself out over symptoms -- I am 11 weeks and totally scared myself at 7 weeks b/c my bbs weren't as sore. You are fine. Just keep praying and don't let your mind create drama. Take it easy and marvel at God's work as he prepares you for your child!

Can't wait to hear about your u/s. Next week will be here before you know it.

Court, if it makes you feel any better my queasiness just started last week (I'm at 9 weeks now) and it's not just mornings! It's morning, afternoon AND evening sickness! The only thing that helps me is vinegary stuff like pickles, salad dressing, etc. Enjoy it, because it's COMING! ((HUG))

Hi, my name is Amanda and I have been following your blog for a while, I found it on one of the TTC message boards. My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for about 20 Months 2 surgerys for me and 3 rounds of Clomid with no sucess,my doctor is wanting us to now see a RE, but I am not sure this is something that we can afford right now. I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions of how you got a "Sucess Story" I dont know you personally but I am so Happy that you are getting your "Happy Ending" all the work in the end will be so worth it when you hold that beautiful baby. My email is Amandam@longlewis.com
Thanks
